Review on Acer CG437K Pbmiiippuzx 4K Display, 144Hz, Backlit, Compatible with DisplayHDR 3840x2160 by Ryan Lewis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

More suitable for console games

I wanted a big 4k screen for flight sims. While this does what it says on the tin, it just wasn't a good all-in-one solution for a desktop monitor. I had to go back and get the LG 38 inch ultra wide. Pros: - Almost perfect adaptation of Gsync. Extremely smooth gameplay without tearing, but a slight flickering was noticeable in the menus. - Excellent brightness, although too bright. Use settings of 0-30% most of the time. The 4K resolution is fantastic. In my opinion, no motion blur. Cons: Too big for desktop use (neck pain), unable to use full screen pages for web browsing, etc. - Slow, clunky menu system with very poor English explanations in the manual. Enabling one feature will disable 10 others, but you won't know which ones and your settings will be overridden. - You won't use the top third for most desktop tasks. - At this size, it should be curved or very far back. - Difficult to control games like Microsoft Flight Sim at this resolution - Extremely heavy with bulky packaging.

Pros
  • 144 Hertz
Cons
  • Waiting too long
